Get to the World Series, you can buy a BLRO
Just saw this on IG...damn, it even took Howie Kendrick a while to get the 126710blro. Guess he needed to hit a grand slam in the NLCS and make it to the WS before he could buy one from an AD.
 The watch looks good on him and I now feel less bad having been turned away by the same AD for the same watch https://www.instagram.com/p/B30XNUNn...d=7xesat0vezke https://www.instagram.com/p/B3-HsmvB...d=jt0oa6w9znlo |

I wonder if the AD even knew who he was. I'm the biggest MLB fan there is...if I was the sales guy, I'd bring out all the hidden watches they keep away from us peasants.

thats great that he got one. I'm sure he had to name drop, dont think the sales staff would know who he is.

As a owner of a SS Submariner Date, I can’t see what all the hype is about. It pretty much looks like a Sub, only difference is the choice of two different bezel colors. Blue, or Red. Maybe if I didn’t own a SS Sub, I’ll be drinking the Kool Aid too. However, it is a nice watch. Go Nationals, and I’m a Yankee fan.

Get to the World Series, you can buy a BLRO

The only thing the Sub Date and GMT have in common are the hour markers, hour/second hands and date window...other than that, literally everything else is different so I respectfully disagree. Oh and I say this having owned a 114060 and now own the 126710. |

Congrats on him getting a fine timepeice. Bravo!
BTW: When did they start a World Series? Am sure they must be including teams from Asia, Europe, South America, Cuba, etc, right? Or is this an American Series claiming to be World?

Good for Howie and L&B.
No need to speculate, Howie is a well-known collector, been on Hodinkee Talking Watches, and L&B owns 4-5 stores - they know exactly what they are doing and who Howie is - this is smart business on their behalf. And come on, does someone really begrudge Howie getting a BLRO? |

Great AD to work with. Dimitri is first class. Ordered a jubilee for my P Serial 16710 through them. Im waitlisted for a piece through them right now and he's been great to work with.

Each to their own! I prefer the GMT over the sub, the extra hour marker, the bezel, the colours. Very different |
